Martin Seligman: What is positive psychology?
A user recently asked me:
What is the difference between happiness and well-being?
I want to clear up the terminology I use in Positive Psychology:
Happiness and Well-being I use synonymously as the names for the entire field. Neither of these terms plays any role in the theory however. The theory says that these overarching labels are scientifically unwieldy but dissolve into three more measurable components: positive emotion, engagement, and meaning.
